The next morning, Chloe went to the studio very early. Clément came to shop at the market on an electric bike.

– Clement! greeted Lucile cheerfully. Clément replied, looking at her with surprise: – It’s you, Lucile. What a coincidence ! You also shop here! Eyes on Clement, Lucile stammered:
– Yes… No… Me, I…
Having trouble understanding her, Clément interrupted her: – Take your time, Lucile. Did something happen to you ? Lucile blushed all of a sudden: she was ashamed. Indeed, arrival t r this morning outside Chloé’s house, she had followed Clément to the market.
And then, armed with courage, the girl said, biting her lips lightly: — Actually, I come deliberately in order to express my gratitude to you. Thank you so much for saving me yesterday.
This response dumbfounded Clément. Then he explained with a forced smile – Please. And if I saved you, it’s because you’re a close friend of my wife. With that, Lucile shook her head and courageously continued – Clement… in fact, I know that the person who saved me the other day in the Jilin Restaurant is also you.
Clément was flabbergasted, thinking:
“How does she know that?” She shouldn’t have known, since I masked the face then. Then he hastily denied:
“Why does he have no intention of acknowledging the truth?” Am I too insignificant for him to want to acknowledge having saved me? »
